Antioxidants
You’ve probably heard all about antioxidants when it comes to food, but what about skin care? Antioxidants are materials that prevent your skin from oxidizing holding the key to skin cell defense & repair. These skin protectors fortify cells by trapping and containing free radicals and boosting cell function. They also keep your skin safe from pollution, UV rays, and other environmental factors. Think about an apple; it turns browns after sitting in the air for a while, right? That is free radical damage! HydraFacial MD® MD® works to not only to detoxify skin clearing away daily wear and tear, but also to replenish the skin with much-needed antioxidants to revitalize and protect.

Peptides
Peptides are amino acids that make up certain proteins needed by the skin. The collagen molecule is actually too large to absorb through skin, but peptides can absorb into the skin where they can be used by the body. Adding peptides can stimulate your body to make more collagen. More collagen can lead to firmer, younger-looking skin. These age-refining superstars help to reduce the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles while also helping to stimulate the body’s natural antioxidant response.

Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid is naturally produced by the body and is found in the connective tissue. HA is the main component of what gives your skin structure and gives skin its volume and fullness. A lack of Hyaluronic Acid can lead to a decrease in the elasticity of your skin. Why’s hyaluronic acid so magical? For starters, HA can bind up to 1000 times its weight in water!

Not all HA’s are impactful, most cannot penetrate the barrier of the skin. HydraFacial MD® MD® utilizes a special low molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid that plumps and deeply hydrates the skin.
